While I agree with @arrogantrabbit’s assessment as likely, there’s also another possible factor: select node operators probably don’t mind killing broken nodes given they have different guarantees regarding utilization. So they’re not looking at each node warning and trying to fix it, and instead just get rid of a failing node and automatically set up another. For us common folks losing a single node is a big deal. For them providing petabytes of storage? Uh, not really…
BTW, at this point we know that select node operators don’t use Windows. Guess how we learned that? ![]()
